Peoplechart Secures Partners Premiere Contract After
Extensive Vetting Process

Partners HealthCare System (PHS) and Peoplechart entered into a 5-year, auto-renewing Services Agreement, effective May 25, 2007. Peoplechart Corporation, a recognized leader in the growing field of Personal Health Record, was selected after having competed with over 20 PHR companies in a rigorous 4-month vetting process that was initiated in mid October 2006 via Request-For-Proposal.

In October 2007 Partners began using a customized version of the Peoplechart Personal Health Record (PHR) application to serve members of Partners Premiere, a membership-based personal health education and assistance program for international individuals and families.

"We are delighted with the Peoplechart PHR and team. The application is intuitive and helpful for members as well as staff and professional users. Individuals can organize and document all personal health information, easily create and print personal health reports, communicate confidentially with medical providers and grant time-specific, password-protected access to others of their choosing" said Nancy Auger Buckman RN, MSN, MBA, Director, Partners Premiere.

"We are really pleased to work with Partners Premiere in bringing the Peoplechart PHR to a new level of patient use, where patients work with their family members and an entire team of health professionals to maximize the benefits of coordinated care and professional guidance in their journey toward quality diagnosis and treatment." said Megan Mok, Founder and CEO of Peoplechart.
